Rasmussen today:Romney 48% vs Obama 44% - O's approval rating has fallen even further. Uh.........sweet pie, this was expected and projected a while ago. Typically with each GOP convention, the House of Raz aka the House of GOP shows the Dem candidate to be in the lead. At the end of the convention, they reverse the positions and Viola! Rs have their bounce. Sadly, there seems to be no follow through with the other pollsters this time around.......but may be tomorrow, sweet pie. Pray on it! Jesus loves you!

The ignorant and mean, often out number the intelligent and compassionate. History is quite clear about that. <<Rasmussen today:Romney 48% vs Obama 44% - O's approval rating has fallen even further. So, in the past 4yrs of Obama's annihilation of the US economy, your chronic political learning disability has not even started to improve. Listen to Romney-Ryan and force yourself to focus. Wise Americans have already done that and will therefore vote for the Republican ticket on Nov 6.

Gallup poll,, prestigious and widely followed. Read and decide for yourself. You will bring polls and news from partisan sources. I will just read them with a pinch of salt. And after having that salt, I will go and research them myself from such non-partisan sites such as this because I do not want to remain deluded by the wingers. ==================================== Gallup: No convention bounce for Romney By David Jackson, USA TODAY Updated 13m ago CHARLOTTE -- It doesn't look like Mitt Romney's poll position improved after last week's Republican national convention.Recent daily tracking poll averages nationwide put President Obama at 47% and Romney at 46%, according to Gallup. "We have been monitoring the potential impact of the Republican convention on the presidential race on a day-by-day basis," writes Gallup's editor-in-chief Frank Newport. "So far, we don't see an impact." Newport also noted that "both Obama and Romney for the most part have been at or around 46% since we began tracking in April." Gallup will soon start assessing the impact of the Democratic convention that starts Tuesday in North Carolina. Newport writes: The two-week convention phase of this election is now at its midpoint. We won't know what the impact of the two conventions is until roughly Sept. 7-13, the full week after the Democratic convention closes in Charlotte. That will mark the beginning of Phase VI of the election -- the period between the conventions and the first presidential debate on Oct. 3. The key question after next week's Democratic convention will be: Has the race for president been fundamentally reset in any way by the two weeks of the conventions? By "reset," I mean has either Barack Obama or Mitt Romney moved ahead in the national vote by more than a few points, and stayed ahead for more than a few days? content.usatoday.com

Shocking that pollster are now saying that Romney would not win MA and MI. ============== Barack Obama approval rating at 15-month high, poll says Originally published: September 7, 2012 9:08 PM Updated: September 7, 2012 9:13 PM By BLOOMBERG Photo credit: AP \| President Barack Obama speaks at a campaign event at University of Iowa in Iowa City, Iowa. (Sept. 7, 2012) President Barack Obama's job approval reached a 15-month high during the Democratic National Convention this week, according to a Gallup poll. The poll, conducted Tuesday-Thursday and released Friday, found that 52 percent of Americans approve of the president's job performance, up 3 percentage points from the previous survey, conducted Monday-Wednesday. In the latest poll, 43 percent disapproved of the job Obama is doing, down from 45 percent. Obama's job approval hadn't topped 50 percent in the Gallup survey since a poll conducted June 21-23. The latest approval numbers are the president's highest since a survey conducted May 29-June 1, 2011, in which Obama registered a 53 percent approval rating. The bump in Obama's rating coincides with his party's nominating convention this week. Obama accepted the nomination in a speech Thursday night before heading to a campaign event Friday in New Hampshire where he discussed an unexpected slowdown in August job growth that could temper his momentum from the convention. The poll released Friday has a margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points and is based on telephone interviews with about 1,500 adults.

When the right wing Rassmussen report poll indicates that Obama has taken the lead over Romney, then that should signal the Romney campaign to sit up and seriously consider what sketch they need to etch next. realclearpolitics.com

There is a certain guy from the US called Romney, who is getting weirder by the day. Not only does he keep flip flopping on the issues wherein he now supports Obamacare after having publicly opposed it for the past 9 months, but he also says this (..excerpt "I have some differences on policy with the president. I happen to think those are more important than what word I mention in each speech," he said.) THis is the last sentence from this AP news item!!!! ============================================== Romney says he likes parts of 'Obamacare' (AP) – 27 minutes ago ....contd at google.com
